Podge & Rodge TV Show

[theworm2345]

They've had it released on Demonoid recently, but they closed it to the public

[Rambling Along]

How good does Amanda Brunker look presenting it!

She's after losing some amount of weight and she looks savage!

Does any one over the age of 14 still watch this show? Seems like the joke ended a couple of years ago.

I've not seen Podge and Rodge in years - I might check it out following your synoposis above!!

I've given up on it too. Only watched 5mins of it the other night cause there was nothing else on.

yeah, there was a documentary a few years ago on BBC2 about the rise and fall of the lads mag. FHM, Maxim and Loaded were among the biggest selling magazines in the world in the late 90's. Then competitors like Stuff, Gear, Front, etc came in an stole a lot of their readership. On top of that the guys that had bought them in the early 20's got into their late 20's and 30's, and all that comes with it (mortgage, family, etc) and stopped buying the mags. So they started targeting a younger audience with shorter articles, and less of them. And using "dude" a lot.
Now, since the likes of GQ and Mens Health are outselling them, they've brought in a "nipple ban" so the models aren't entirely naked, and more articles about money, health, etc, to try and bring back the audience they originally had.
All of which is just spin, seeing as how FHM and Loaded own Zoo and Nuts.

The first season of podge and rodge was good because they caught people off gaurd but now every one going on it knows whats going to happen and P&R will just make mickey jokes all night, Flickes over to see that page 3 bird claire tully on it had to turn it off it was so bad.

To answer my own question - apparently a lot of people watch this as it was 2nd most popular RTE 2 show the week before last. Katherine Lynch's rubbish was 5th.

[theworm2345]

Ray Houghton was on recently...

I used to download this show but then it got old and now its not available for download. However, I would like to see Razor on it (I have Big Jack, McAteer, and Cascarino on my computer)

If someone could please download the clip to IVR in Real Player and send it to me it'd be much appreciated, its not viewable outside of Ireland

Mary McEvoy, Donna McCaul, Blath Ni Chough?? Don't think so.

Show has snowballed down a hill this season, very poor quality presenters, and boring guests. Going down the pan fast.

[Red&White Rover]

I thought it had died ages back.

Can't believe it's still goign.

[oscar]

pure ****e

[Neish]

As mentioned above the 1st and possibly the 2nd series were good as most of the guests were not expecting the dirty and cheeky jokes from a couple of puppets(also outakes on the dvds were class). But it has long since died a death and it also commited the sin of convincing the Irish public that Lucy Kennedy is a good presenter.

[mypost]

The same puppets that did Zig & Zag several moons ago.

Langerland.tv has overtaken it on the laughometer.

Loaded at the top of it's game in the mid nineties was better than any of them. Smart enough to be self depricative and mindful of it's raison d'etre* without any of the pretense of the likes of GQ or FHM.

Some of the regular features like P0rn-a-likes/Celebrity Shags were absolutely hilarious. (anyone remember Gazza taking Ruby Wax up the jacksy while Phil Collins keeps her quiet?)

*my personal favourite (on several levels) was a topless spread and interview, on location in the Australian outback, with a very pretty idiot who used be in neighbours in the early nineties (she was Annaleese' sister).
The articles title ..."Picnic at Banging C0ck"
